Equine heat safety ordinance:
The City of Savannah is also actively enforcing equine heat safety ordinances which impact several local tour companies. When the heat index exceeds 110 degrees (or when the actual temperature reaches 95 degrees), horse-drawn carriages shall not be allowed to operate on City streets. Horses can either be kept at their stands to keep cool or return to their stables if they can safely do so. Code Compliance and Special Events, Film, & Tourism enforces these rules and all local horse carriage tour businesses have received reminders of the rules.
